MATTERS IN DIVORCEPETITIONS TO WANGANUI SUPREME COURTRobert Wilson (Mr. C. F. Treadwell) sought divorce from Chrissie Mayzie Wilson on the grounds of adultery, Herman Joseph Lambert being named as co-respondent. The petitioner is overseas, and His Honour made an order giving leave to him to proceed with his petition by power of attorney. Annie Wilson, the petitioner's mother, who had power of attorney, gave evidence on her son's behalf. She said she knew that respondent and co-respondent were living together. The two children of the marriage were at present with the mother, but the matter of their custody would be dealt with on the arrival back in New Zealand of the petitioner. He was expected back soon.
Decree nisi was granted, to be moved absolute after the expiry of three months. The question of custody of the children was stood over for an application to be made by the petitioner, as he is not at present in a position to take over custody. Costs were allowed against the co-respondent.

BIOGRAPHY.Stephene Lambert has a family tree on ancestry.com that provides information about Robert Wilson's parents and family. As indicated in the 1945 report of Robert's divorce from Chrissie Hoskin in Wanganui, his mother was named Annie Wilson. The 1948 Wanganui Electoral Roll has Robert Wilson (painter), Robert Wilson Junior (painter) and Annie Wilson (married) living at 145 Glasgow Street, Wanganui.
Based on the above it was concluded that Robert's parents were Robert and Annie Wilson, with Robert and Annie buried together in the Aramoho Cemetery, Wanganui. Stephene Lambert's research indicated that Robert and Annie Wilson immigrated to New Zealand with their six children on the S.S. Mahana in 1926. Robert was 16 years old when he left for New Zealand, giving a birth year of about 1910.
Robert married Chrissie Mayzie Hoskin in 1931 and according to the report of their divorce, they had two children. Robert served with the NZ Expeditionary Forces overseas in the second world war. While Robert was away, Chrissie moved in with Herman Joseph Lambert, who she married after being divorced.
After the war Robert moved back to his parents in Wanganui. Further examination of the Wanganui Electoral Rolls showed a Robert Wilson, painter, living at the same address as Moya Dorothy Wilson in the 1950s. Robert married Moya Dorothy Terrell in 1951. Moya died in 1982 and was buried in Aramoho Cemetery, Wanganui. Robert's death was found by examining the NZ Deaths online search to find a Robert Wilson, born about 1910 and who died after 1978, the last date Moya and Robert were recorded living together in the Wanganui Electoral Rolls. Based on this, Robert Wilson, painter, died in 1991 and was buried Hastings Cemetery.
